Very Pleasant Surprise
We were pleasantly surprised by the property. Our room was large and very clean. It was quiet. The area looked a little sketchy, but there were no problems. The guys at the neighboring gas station were very friendly and helpful. They have a veritable mini store behind the counter if you forget any personal items or need aspirin, toothpaste, shampoo, hairspray, etc. We needed a smoking room, and they are very hard to find. The room did not smell like stale smoke. It was very clean and very large. The staff is very friendly.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Checking in, the front desk associate was very nice. However, when I returned to say my nonsmoking room is very smokey I was not offered another room. I was given frebreeze and had to keep my door ajar to breathe awhile. Due to an event nearby there were not other options so I thought I could endure it. I ended up with a headache and an itchy throat. The yop sheet was clean but the mattress pad was DISGUSTING. STAINED AND HAIR ALLOVER. There was garbage under the furniture. The walls have definitely never been wiped down, filthy - plus flies. I dont even think they swept up my room. There were people stompi g around. Kids crying. and very late people banging on doors to be let in. It is not the best aresa but this was a 200$ motel stay and it was disgusting and noisy.
